SC Reefers

Just sending a shout out to reefers in the Aiken/Augusta Area. I'm new to the hobby and would love to talk to people in the area about their tanks--issues, successes........

Look forward to hearing from you!!

Claire

Hi Mark, Do you live in Athens? Any good Fish stores there? I just went to Atlanta on Friday and got some great corals. I can't believe there is no one from this area out there--maybe they're all out celebrating Memorial Day!!!!

Thanks for answering

Claire

Hi again Claire

Yes I live in Athens just got home, we have one store that is OK if you are close to Augusta try Bob's but give it a month or two he just moved his store over doubled in size but he's still setting up. Were did you go in Atlanta. I travel a lot and try to hit stores everywhere.

Mark

Hello Mark, there are several really nice stores that I have found near Atlanta. There are 2 in Marietta that are with a few miles of each other. One is Marine Fish (Very knowledgeable and super friendly--their prices are a little high, but less expensive then the 1 store here in town. The other store in Marietta is Cappucinno Bay. They deal mostly in Corals (an amazing display) Inexpensive frags 9.99 and up. I have only visited that store once and didn't find then really friendly--but I will definately go back.

Believe it or not the best place I found for frags of all sorts is Petland in Alpharetta. They recently went up to 24.99 per frag, but the frags there are the size that my lfs sells for 79.00 and up. They are awesome and are setting up a whole new area for their corals.

All three stores are worth the trip.

I only recently started filling my tank and I have heard about Bob's and his big move. I will be checking him out soon.

Have a great night and I hope to talk to you some time later.

Claire
